Hi all,

I'm trying to create Machine Learning jobs on Kibana, but in the vast majority of time, they fail with the following error at the 'Validation' stage on Kibana, before the job is run:

So, is this a capacity problem? A configuration error? The messages are too vague to figure out what's wrong. How can I get more insight?

Clicking the 'see full error' is equally as unspecific:
